Cyient Limited Approves Buyback of 64 Lakh Shares Worth ₹720 Crore at ₹1,125 Each
Cyient Limited approved a buyback of 64 lakh shares at ₹1,125 each, totaling ₹720 crore. The buyback aims to return surplus cash and enhance shareholder value. A committee has been formed to manage the process, which will be executed via tender offer. Shareholder approval was secured on June 10, 2026.
A buyback of this size can positively impact share price and shareholder returns. However, its impact is moderated by the fact that it's a tender offer and not a market purchase, and the company's overall financial performance and market conditions.
The company is returning surplus cash to shareholders through a buyback, which is generally viewed positively by the market as it can enhance shareholder value and indicates financial health.
Cyient Limited has announced its approval for a buyback of up to 64,00,000 (Sixty-Four Lakhs) fully paid-up equity shares. The buyback will be conducted at a price of ₹1,125 per share, for an aggregate amount not exceeding ₹720 crore (Seven Hundred Twenty Crores). This decision was formalized through a Board Meeting on April 23, 2026, and subsequently approved by shareholders via postal ballot on June 10, 2026.
The buyback aims to return surplus cash to shareholders, potentially improve return on equity by reducing the equity base, and offer shareholders an option to liquidate or increase their holdings. A portion of the buyback, 15% of the shares or entitlement for small shareholders (holding shares not exceeding ₹2,00,000 in market value), is reserved for them.
A dedicated "Buyback Committee-2026" has been constituted to oversee the implementation, manage regulatory approvals, and handle all operational aspects of the buyback process. The company has confirmed compliance with all relevant regulations, including solvency declarations and the maintenance of minimum public shareholding. The buyback is funded through internal accruals and will not involve borrowed funds. The process will be executed through the tender offer route via Indian stock exchanges, with Axis Capital Limited appointed as the manager to the buyback and KFin Technologies Limited as the registrar.
